Lyrics:

Up in the morning, out on the job
Work like the devil for my pay
Lucky old sun, ain't got nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day

Fuss with my woman, toil for my kids
Sweat 'til I am wrinkled and gray
But that lucky old sun
Ain't got nothin' to do
Roll around heaven all day

Dear Lord above
Can't You see I'm cryin'?
Tears are in my eyes
Send down a cloud with a silver lining
Take me to paradise

Show me that river, lead me across
And take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun
I'll have nothin' to do
Roll around heaven all day

Dear Lord above
Can't you see I'm cryin'?
Tears are in my eyes
Send down a cloud with a silver lining
Take me to paradise

Show me that river, lead me across
And take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun
I'll have nothin' to do
Roll around heaven all day

But roll around heaven all day
